    Question about (normal) guest network with ASUS ROG Rapture GT-AX6000

    Hi all, Since I am planning to order 3 of these this evening (or tomorrow morning), I am looking for some honest advice about the ASUS ROG Rapture GT-AX6000 routers. I have been running 3 ASUS RT-AC86U (AC2900) in AiMesh mode (running MerlinWRT). This works nicely, however the Guest Network...

    Pihole/Yazfi with guest network

    I have an Asus AC86U and a raspi with umbrel and pihole installed. My router has the DNS set to the pihole DNS and another DNS to use to resolve in case the first DNS isn't available. I do realise this means that both are used no matter what but it saves my network from crashing if the first...

    Guest Network Causes 2.4 Ghz Conflict

    Hi, Every year i am forced to turn on a 2.4 Ghz guest network because my “smart” Christmas lights cant connect to a network that automatically switches between a 5Ghz network and a 2.4 Ghz network, depending on the client and the distance. Setting up the 2.4 Ghz guest network, in addition to my...

    Hi, my setup is an RT-AX88U as the main router, 1 RT-AX86U, and 1 RT-AX86U Pro as nodes, they are all running Asus firmware. After I caught the cameras randomly connecting to Beijing, I set up a guest network for all of my smart devices and security cameras. I only have 1 guest network but...

    Guest network isolation issue

    Hello Long-time lurker and new member. I hope I am doing this correctly. I read numerous threads before posting but am unable to solve my problem. Just recently (this was working fine ...) I stopped being able to "see" my devices on my guest Wifi network. For example, I have a Raspberry Pi...

    RT-AC86U VLAN-like modifications to guest network

    Hello all! I'm using an RT-AC86U with Merlin and I would like to have three different wireless networks (all with different SSIDs and passwords): one for trusted devices, one for guests, and one for IoT devices. On the guest and IoT networks, I want all devices to be isolated. At this point...

    Disabling "Access Intranet" on RT-AX86U guest network causes IoT devices on primary network to repeatedly disconnect

    Hi, I'm having an issue where some cheap Zengge (Magic Home) LED controllers are repeatedly losing connection to my primary wireless network whenever I disable "Access Intranet" on my guest network. Previously I kept all IoT devices on my guest wifi network and disabled the bridging, as a...

    Turn a LAN Port into Guest ?

    Hi, I have a device that needs to have faster speeds which can only be achieved by using one of the LAN Ports. However, I want to have that specific device to be a part of the guest network rather than internal network like all the LAN Ports are. Is there any script or way that would force a...

    How does Guest Networks work on the technical level behind the scene ?

    Hello, It looks like Asus routers have 6 guest networks and from what I can see in the options you can turn on or off network isolation which I presume would only block ICMP or All packets reaching from one host to anohter on the same guest network you are connected to ? My main question is...

    Looking for a router with multiple Guest Networks (SSIDs)

    Hi all, I'm looking for a new router besides Asus where you can use multiple guest networks for a network isolation. I know this can be done on SOHO equipment with a combination of managed switch and VLAN aware access point but I'm looking for all in one\consumer router type of solution. So...

    YazFi: Guest Networks and DNS Director?

    I have an Asus RT-AC3100 with 386.5.2. I'm using guest networks to isolate some devices and the DNSFilter feature to use OpenDNS to block some websites. DNSFilter works as expected on the main network, but does not work when I move a device over to the any of the 3 guest networks. Also, I can...

    I have an ASUS RT-AX88U router that is running RT-AX88U_388.2_2 firmware. I have a Guest Network setup that I use to connect to every day when working from home. I had my router set so that every Monday night at 5am, my router would perform a scheduled reboot. However, when it does this, my...

    Yet another question about VLANs (any HowTo recommended?)

    Hi folks, I see here on SNBforums and on Reddit are dozens (or maybe close to hundred) posts about VLANs on Asus Merlin routers, though I haven't found a comprehensive guide/Howto. Anyone can recommend one for my case? My main is AX86S (router mode) and also a second node AC68U that is wired...

    Best way to configure intranet "levels of trust" on both ethernet and WLAN? (with multiple routers)

    I currently have two RT-AX88U devices. The basement one has Asuswrt-Merlin, the other is stock (but I could easily put Merlin on it, too). The RT-AX88U ("Router 1") in the basement is directly connected to the WAN (and a number of rooms in the house by ethernet). The RT-AX88U ("Router 2") on the...

    Guest Network Access to HP9010e AIO

    I'm hoping someone can help me understand why I can't seem to print. I've created a Guest network with the same SSID and Pwd on my Zen Wifi XT8 router on both the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands (using it to isolate IOT and work computers). The printer is connected to the correct wireless as is the client...
